Financial Information

The Commissioner publishes detailed financial information on a regular basis to help detail how public resources are used. This page holds information about finances, expenditure, contracts and property and other financial data that we are required to publish by statute.

The nature of these documents means that not all are published in a fully accessible format at present. If you are unable to access the information you require or need further assistance to be able to view the information, please contact us and we will endeavour to provide it to you in an accessible way.

Please note the information about the grants awarded by the PCC and commissioned services can be found in the Your PCC section under Commissioners’ Grants.

Annual Statement of Accounts

The panel wrote to the Commissioner on 8 February 2023 to confirm their support for the budget. The Commissioner wrote back to the Panel acknowledging their comments on 16 February 2023.
